《疯狂的罗兰》:文艺复兴的杰作、近现代社会的最初表现

Orlando Furioso:A Renaissance Masterpiece and the Incipient Embodiment of Early Modern Society

如果说但丁以《神曲》结束了中世纪,阿里奥斯托则以他的宏伟巨著《疯狂的罗兰》全面地代表了文艺复兴,他热情地歌颂文艺复兴的理想,赞美人的创造能力、探险精神、对美的欣赏和对尘世快乐的享受。《疯狂的罗兰》是意大利文艺复兴的杰作、西方古典文化的结晶、中世纪两大系列骑士文学的巧妙结合、近现代社会和现代叙事手法的最初表现。

As Dante ends the Middle Ages,Ariosto represents the synthesis of the Renaissance.He expresses with enthusiasm the ideals of the Renaissance.He exalts human capabilities,sense of adventure,admiration for beauty and enjoyment of earthly pleasures.Orlando Furioso is a beautiful poem that reflects the Greek-Roman classical culture,an encyclopedia of medieval chivalric literature,a masterpiece of the Renaissance,and one of the first works that present us with modernity.
